themadpokerOkay a wee bit of background on my POLS 1000 course. It's required for first year poli sci students and I suspect my professor is under the impression that the whole class decided to take this course while knowing nothing about politics. He has this tendency to repeat every single one of his points multiple times with only slight word changes. (Sample: The major political unit of Athens was the polis. In Athen politics were carried out in the polis. The political arena of Athens was the polis. And did I mention the polis?) Also he will make a huge deal out of the most basic things (let's not talk about just how MUCH time he spent outlining basic conservative, liberal, and socialist ideology)
So yeah. Basically I spend a lot of time in that course bored out of my mind. Sometimes though I will have a bit of fun when he expresses his own political opinions. Like today when someone asked if Macleans was an acceptable source for the paper we have to hand in soon.
He said no on account of Macleans in recent years being hijacked by neo-conservatives.
Word, professor, word. Any publication with Mark Steyn as a regular columnist is a BAD PUBLICATION. (Back when my dad subscribed to Macleans I would read his column every week solely to see how he would manage to be offensive that day. He was quite creative at it!)
